American opposition to slavery was inherited from earlier European antagonism to the idea.

In England, for example, slavery was abolished by King Henry I, as a result of statements on the subject issued by the Conference of London in 1102. In the English colonies of North America, there was always some distaste for slavery resulting from the old idea that it was cruel and unchristian.
